Welcome to Year Four

Year 4 students wrote letters pretending to be a child convict who was sent to Australia. We wrote to a pretend person ‘back home in England’ to show how much we have learnt about the conditions on the voyages of the First Fleet and what it was like on arrival in Sydney Cove in 1787 – 1788.

Year 4 students attended the Terra Australis Oi, Oi, Oi incursion, where they used drama, costumes and props to re-enact important events in Australian history. They learned about early explorers, life on the goldfields, the Eureka Stockade, and famous figures such as Ned Kelly, helping them develop a deeper understanding of the people and events that shaped our nation.
